Stellar M22 by Lumenis

IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. It is a cosmetic treatment that uses broad-spectrum light to target various skin conditions, such as hyperpigmentation, acne, rosacea, fine lines, and wrinkles.

During an IPL treatment, a handheld device is used to deliver a series of rapid pulses of light to the skin. The light energy penetrates the skin's surface and is absorbed by the targeted areas, causing a controlled injury to the skin cells. This process triggers the body's natural healing response, stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin fibers, which can help to improve skin tone and texture.

IPL can also be used to target specific pigments in the skin, such as melanin in brown spots or redness caused by broken blood vessels. The light energy is absorbed by the pigmented areas, causing them to break down and eventually fade.

IPL treatments are typically done in a series of 3. The number of sessions required will depend on the specific skin condition being treated and the individual's skin type and goals.

IPL is generally considered safe and effective when performed by a trained professional. However, like any cosmetic treatment, there are some risks and potential side effects, such as temporary redness, swelling, and skin discoloration. It's important to discuss the potential risks and benefits of IPL with a qualified practitioner before undergoing treatment.

A series of sessions is typically required for optimal results, and maintenance treatments may be necessary over time.
